SQL injection attacks." );

"The remote host is running Exhibit Engine, a web-based photo gallery
written in PHP.

vulnerability due to its failure to sanitize user-supplied input to
various parameters of the 'list.php' script.  An attacker can exploit
these flaws to inject arbitrary SQL statements into the affected
application, possibly even reading arbitrary database entries." );
